      No, he didn’t. He wrote an executive order. That’s not a law. It’s a directive to the executive branch, and we are in no way obligated to follow it as citizens.

      SCOTUS ruled that a district judge cannot impose a nationwide injunction against the executive order. Each judge will now have to rule on the case of birthright citizenship independently. The 14th amendment is very clear.

        He declared, and people are going along. ‘Law’ does not seem to matter here.

        We are not obligated as citizens. Thats what the men sith guns are for.

        Thats some tepid-ass bullshit for a part of thr constitution, it almost doesnt matter that the administration is going to wipe their asses with it.

          So because you believe something will happen, we should lead a small, unsuccessful, violent revolution to ensure that it does happen?

          How about you keep your big feelings to yourself while the people who have successfully grown a resistance from a few hundred thousand to ~10M in four months continue to successfully plan and execute a real resistance.

            You use that phrase a lot. I feel like you’re not actually reading what im typing.

            It’s not a resistance if it can’t actually do anything. I’m not sure the milder thing is necessarily the easy sell.

              What about growing numbers is confusing to you? 10M people is ~2% of our nation. We couldn’t collectively get anything done, yet. We’re growing a resistance through organized protests.

              You clearly haven’t read enough on the topic. Do some research and then we can talk. Until then, your opinion is woefully uninformed.
